Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Hello! My boyfriend is a nuke and in ship 02 and division 932. I though it would be nice to make a place for anyone else with the same division and/or ship to talk and share information! I hope I find some others(:

but which ramada?
it's so hard.  praying for you

Yay!!  I made plane and hotel reservations today.  I always fly Southwest and they will allow you to change if necessary. (Please Lord, don't make it necessary).

I found the Ramada's Meet & Greet page, found a great rate there, so that's where we're staying.

So excited, can hardly wait -  28 more days

I will have my nine and two year old with me, so as much as I want to get there early for a great seat, I think I'll do what I can to maintain my sanity and arrive closer to around 6:30.
So why don't you let mil go pretty early and save the seats for you 3.  That way the kids can sleep in :-)  I have an 8 year old and he has ADHD...it's going to be HELL!!!!  I reserved rooms at the Quality Inn but now thinking I want the Ramada too!!  Not sure what to do...may have to see what they have left. 
I am going to check into the Ramada too then...we will see what they say.  Do you have to pay extra for the shuttle then do you know? Don't you have someone who is going to be left behind?  Can they drive you to the graduation?  How old is the baby? 
I'm staying at the Navy Lodge and plan on getting there exactly at 4:30am. I want a front row seat(: I promised my boyfriend I would try my best to get one. Oh, and as I've mentioned a few times, anyone staying at the Navy Lodge who needs a ride to the meet and greet, I have 4 empty seats in my car! I'd totally take some people!

Will mil ride the shuttle over by herself then so she can save the seats?  And then let the fil drop you off...I thought I seen somewhere that it was going to be a little bit of a walk...but I could be wrong.  I will try to find that!  You are driving from KC right?  What day are you leaving? 

I live only 15 minutes from Scott! Maybe we can all help each other out. I know if I go early I would be more than happy to save seats for any of you.  But I'm not sure if they will allow us to do that.  I wish I could talk to my daughter ahead of time...maybe during her last call I can work something out with her.  She is a non-performer for the 900 Division so she doesn't even walk with the group.  She has to usher people to their seats.  If I could get her to save us seats...lol!!  I guess we will all be the blind leading the blind!!  But I'm sure we will figure it out.
Esther, I can try to save some seats if they will let me, I will be there at 430am anyhow.
Well I will try(: Yeah I know i won't be getting much (if any sleep) I will be way too excited!! So I figure if I can't sleep anyway might as well just go in early. I'm already getting excited, it's nice to be in the 20's of the countdown.
It is definitely a great feeling to see 2 in front of the countdown!!  I hope I get to see my SR before it all starts but that too may be a little difficult since it will be so crowded and I will have no idea as to where she will be ushering in at :(  Oh well...it will all work out and like Esther said...we will all just be so happy to see our SR's!!
